Abstract

L'invention concerne une excavatrice hydraulique qui comprend : un dispositif de travail ayant une pluralité d'éléments avant, comprenant un godet; et un dispositif de commande capable de commander le dispositif de travail à l'aide d'une commande d'assistance d'excavation, le dispositif de travail étant commandé de telle sorte que le godet se déplace le long d'une surface d'excavation cible prescrite, et une commande de prévention de déviation grâce à laquelle le fonctionnement d'un élément avant, parmi la pluralité d'éléments avant, qui est apte à amener le dispositif de travail à s'écarter de la zone de travail prescrite est ralenti ou arrêté pour empêcher la déviation de l'engin de chantier de la zone de travail. Lors de la commande du dispositif de travail à l'aide, à la fois d'une commande d'assistance d'excavation et d'une commande de prévention de déviation, le dispositif de commande commande le dispositif de travail de telle sorte que la direction de fonctionnement du godet s'approche de ce que la direction de fonctionnement du godet serait si l'engin de chantier était commandé à l'aide uniquement d'une commande d'assistance d'excavation.
